Chapter 255

Noelle had not been back to Frotconn since her incident. It seemed like Frotconn was just waiting

for her to quit on her own, and Noelle knew it. However, she was not about to give up and resign.

She had been hanging out at Phoenix Tree Residence lately.

Charles had Ronald show Noelle how Royal Star Entertainment had been doing over the years.

Noelle had never worked with showbiz before, so she did not know much about it. However, now

that she owned part of Royal Star Entertainment, she had to start figuring some things out.

For the past few days, Noelle had been busy reading up on Royal Star Entertainment. She pored

over files and learned about the stars signed with the company and the new projects they were

launching.

Ronald used to take care of all those details, only sometimes showing them to Charles for a quick

check. Charles trusted Ronald completely and never really asked about the business.

However, things had changed a bit recently. Ronald had started to report to Charles almost every

day about what was going on at Royal Star Entertainment. However, it seemed more like he was

reporting to Noelle than to Charles.

Luckily for them, Noelle was pretty smart. Ronald found it easy to explain things to her. He was

reminded again how Charles had such a good eye for picking people. Noelle was amazing,

especially compared to Winter, who did not seem to have a clue about business.

Noelle did not see herself as anything special, though. Still, after hearing Ronald’s updates these

last few days, she was starting to get the hang of the entertainment business, which was way more

complicated than she initially thought.

Today, Ronald showed up right on schedule. He also brought Winter’s contract with him.

Charles was up in his study, buried in work, while Noelle was in the kitchen, stirring up something

delicious. The doorbell chimed, and she went to answer it, seeing Ronald at the doorstep with his

briefcase in hand. “Good day, madam!”

“Just call me Noelle, please!” she laughed. Ronald always sounded so stiff and formal, calling her ‘

madam‘ like that. She had tried to get him to stop, but he just kept on doing it. Noelle had pretty

much given up on changing his ways.

“Charles is upstairs!”

“Okay,” Ronald replied with a nod, slipping off his shoes and stepping into house slippers without

being asked.

Noelle shook her head, smiling, and returned to her cooking.

Ronald quickly swapped his shoes and caught a whiff of the delicious scent wafting from the

kitchen. He thought to himself that Charles was lucky to have such a gem for a wife.

Meanwhile, Charles was on a long international call, discussing a deal for Colossus Group with a

company in New Britannia. With the time zones being what they were, he had to call them during

their

business hours.

A knock came from the door, and Charles, excusing himself, called out, “Come in!”

Ronald entered and waited quietly while Charles wrapped up his call, which took a good half an

hour. When it was over, Charles shut off the video and looked at Ronald. “What’s up?”

“Mr. Hoffman, I’ve got Winter’s contract details for you.”

“Is it done?” Charles asked with a raised eyebrow, quickly looking over the document. “She didn’t

have anything to say about it?”

“She was steaming mad!” Ronald remembered how Winter looked that day. “She signed it without

even glancing at it!”

Charles smirked and tossed the contract aside. “I guess I gave her too much credit.” He added,

“You should take care of what comes next!”

“Sure thing, Mr. Hoffman!” Ronald understood that Charles was telling him to make the decisions,

which meant he should probably give Winter a treat to keep her happy. However, he then seemed

to remember something. “I ran into someone today!”
